aces of the three women turn ugly. If they were to stop her, wouldn't it make them look like their two daughters were unfilial But if they didn't stop her, once this pretense of illness was discovered...Siyu.

Feng Lingxi looked at Lu Nian's expression and whispered, "Give your uncle some face."

"I'm telling the truth, and I didn't wrong him." Feng Siyu looked at Lu Nian, "Am I wrong"

"I..."

Lu Nian clenched his fists at the suspicion from his nephew, “Just wait, I’ll definitely prove to you, I have a lot of women who like me.”

Then you better hurry up, don't wait for me to get married before you find a wife. Your future daughter-in-law still hasn't settled down yet.

"Rascal…"

Lu Nian gritted her teeth and glared at Feng Siyu, "You talk so unpleasantly, you really can't compare to Siqi."

"It can't be helped, good advice is often unwelcome."

Feng Siyu sighed, his tone sounding old, "Let's not waste time, I'm going to practice."

"Feng Siyu." Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

Lu Nian turned to face Feng Ling Xi, her eyes meeting Feng Ling Xi's cold gaze. Her face instantly fell, and she wailed, "Sister, look at your well-born son, he's bullying me."

"Seems a bit straightforward."

Feng Lingxi awkwardly smiled, looking at Du Gu Cheng, "I guess it should be inherited from him."

Lu Nian's spear instantly turned towards Dugu City. Feng Lingxi hurriedly chased after Feng Siyu's footsteps, lest she be implicated.

"Si Yu, you can't speak like that. After all, Lu Nian is also your uncle."

Feng Siyu rolled her eyes. "Mother, isn't this all for his own good Grandma Lu has always wanted him to get married and settle down. Look at him now, he doesn't have any girlfriends around, and he won't accept the ones Grandma Lu introduces. If I don't do this, will he even be motivated to find a wife"

Feng Ling was astonished, looking at her son's handsome and sturdy figure, "Who did you learn this from"

This is impressive, this logic works! If you put it that way, then she won't worry about his marriage anymore.

"This still needs to be learned"

Wind Siyu's footsteps came to a halt, "Mother, you don't have to follow me. If you agree to give Xiao Cao to me, I'll go back and pick her up. If you're unwilling, then I'll go train my martial arts."

"You'll have to ask Xiaocǎo about this, Mother can't decide."

After all, Xiaocang is not her maidservant, but her mother's person. She took her in and did not treat Xiaocang as a servant.

"Alright, I'll go find her myself later."

Feng Siyu waved his hand, "I'm going to practice, don't follow me."

"She really is becoming more and more like Wan'er."

Feng Lingxi returned to the courtyard and saw Feng Siqi sitting at the table, eating with gusto. Her brows furrowed slightly. These were both her daughters, how could Siqi eat like a glutton

"Mother, you're back! The kitchen just brought out a lot of pastries. Would you like to try some They are really delicious."

If you like it, eat more.

Feng Lingxi sat opposite her, watching Feng Siqi smile at her and eat happily, without a single bite herself.

"Siyu went to practice, don't you want to go"

Feng Siqi didn't even raise her head, "Mother, I just need to learn medicine. Grandfather said that girls shouldn't be so rough. It's enough to have self-defense martial arts."

"But..."

"Mother, grandfather said that Siqi is a prodigy in medicine. Even if I don't learn martial arts, as long as anyone dares to come within a meter of me, I will make them regret ever being born." Feng Siqi said this with such domineering confidence, as if she had already reached the peak of her abilities.

"Siqi, have you ever thought about what would happen if your kung fu wasn't good enough What if someone attacked you with a hidden weapon from a meter away What would you do"

Feng Siqi suddenly couldn't swallow the pastry that was at her mouth. Looking at her mother's worried eyes, she choked and coughed continuously. Feng Lingxi hurriedly helped her get her breath back.

"Mother, I'm going to practice."

Feng Siqi grabbed the pastries and hurried away, she was most afraid of death. Even if she couldn't fight, she had to run faster.

Feng Lingxi took the pastry and sniffed it at her nose, the curve of her lips widening. This girl was really afraid of death.

Feng Lingxi still couldn't understand the assassination. This assassin shouldn't have targeted her, but Xiao Cao. However, Xiao Cao's whereabouts were exposed. Why didn't this assassin deal with her before Xiao Cao entered the mansion, but instead attacked when she mentioned Bai LiuLi today

"Xier, this king just had someone investigate the owner of the house next door. It's better to investigate thoroughly."

“If the other party wants to conceal their identity, they certainly wouldn't use their name to purchase this house. Besides, even if we find out, it wouldn't be very helpful. If the assassin doesn't show up, knowing the owner's identity wouldn't change anything; we still wouldn't be able to do anything about them.”

That's true. To find out who the culprit is, you'd have to track down the owner of the house. Unless this person was someone they knew, the assassin would still be a mystery.

"Be more careful in the future."

Dugu Cheng thought that today Xi'er almost got assassinated, his heart was pounding with fear.

"Xi'er, what is the origin of that little grass Could the assassins have come for her"

“She was saved by my mother. As for the rest, I don't know. Today's incident is definitely related to her. This assassin is from the Yao clan, there's no mistake about that. But who would come to Lu Mansion the moment Xiaochao appeared and try to assassinate her”

Feng Ling's mind conjured an image of a person, but she was deeply reluctant to believe he had done it. However, staring so intently, who else could it be besides him

"Dugu City, is Luoli the closest to you"

"I saw him the other day, and there wasn't anything different about him compared to before."

Dugu Cheng's memories were delicate, "Only his body seemed to be unwell."

Feng Yu Xi poisoned him that day. His condition worsened, and he became extremely irritable and scary. Could this be related After being poisoned by Feng Yu Xi, Luoli's personality changed drastically, and he joined forces with the elders of the Yao clan to plot a blood sacrifice.

Feng Ling hurriedly shook away the terrifying thought from her mind. It couldn't be like this, Luo Li was Wan Er's master after all, there's no way he would do such a thing.

"Xier."

Dugu Cheng looked at Feng Ling Xi's sudden pale and frightening face, hurriedly grabbed her, and nervously asked, "Are you alright"

"Dugu Cheng, we'll meet Luo Li again tomorrow. You try to make an appointment with him, it can be at Lu's place or at your Chen Wangfu. I have something I want to ask him."

This matter must be clarified face-to-face. If he has truly changed, she cannot allow Wan'er to get close to him, lest Wan'er gets into trouble.

"Alright, this king will have Ye Xi contact Luo Li now. As long as he is in the capital city, he will definitely get in touch."

Feng Lingxi responded immediately and got up quickly, "I'll go make medicine for you. Take care of yourself."

Dugu Cheng looked at Feng Lingxi's uneasy expression, his eyes full of worry. What else had Xi'er thought of that she hadn't explained to him Could Luoli really want to sacrifice his Wan'er in a blood ritual

Outside the City God's Temple, a young attendant hurried forward and bowed to Luo Li. "Clan leader, Prince Chen invites you to have a meal with him tomorrow."

"Ayan, do you think we should meet them"

Luo Li frowned slightly, "Feng Ling Xi already knows about the blood sacrifice, I'm afraid tomorrow she will come to confirm with us."rer, or are you saying that you are the mastermind behind it all"Luo Li merely smiled faintly at Feng Ling Xi's accusation, without much of a reaction."Why must it be Xi'er who goes to the Yao Clan Yo...
